Johnny Manziel has meant a lot to Texas A&M football in the last two years -- so much so that one of the school's regents believes he ought to be honored in a unique way.

In an update of the ongoing $450 million renovation of Kyle Field, Texas A&M regent Jim Schwertner said he hopes that the field is renamed "Kyle Field: The House that Johnny Built," according to the San Antonio Express-News.

Schwertner contends that the school would not have been able to raise the funds needed for the renovation as easily had it not been for the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner, who was selected in the first round of last week's NFL draft by the Cleveland Browns.

The east and south sides of the stadium currently under renovation are reportedly on schedule to be ready for the Aggies' home opener Sept. 6 against Lamar, while the remainder of the planned renovation of the west side of the stadium, not yet begun, is expected to be complete in time for the 2015 season.

According to ESPN, Manziel applied for a trademark to the phrase "The House that Johnny Built," but his friend Nathan Fitch -- better known to many as "Uncle Nate" -- already owns the trademark.

As to whether the field would ever be re-named in Manziel's honor, Schwertner said it would be up to the students and alumni to decide.

"That would sure be a real testament about how great that young man was for this university," he told the Express-News. "My vote would be yes, but there are a lot of other folks who will have a vote on what I just said."
